DR JART+

Drawing inspiration from developments in fields as diverse as microbiology, aerospace, art, and culture, Dr.Jart+’s philosophy is that the best skincare is a fusion of art and science. The brand came into being in 2005 when Leoo (Chin Wook) Lee, then working as an architect in Seoul, was introduced to a blemish balm only available in dermatology clinics. Wanting to create a product with similar functionality that could be made more widely available, he began to collaborate with labs in this quest - and Dr.Jart+’s iconic BB cream was born. Nearly two decades later, the brand has a cult following in both Asia and the West for its unique combination of dermaceutical formulas and playful, high-drama products and packaging.
